Overview
Mongolia's industry value added stood at 38.82% in 2025, a rise of +0.67% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 38.82% by 2025. Mongolia ranked 22nd globally.
Mongolia’s industry value added has risen from 24.98 in 1981 to 38.82 in 2025, placing it 22nd globally and marginally above Papua New Guinea’s 38.63 while trailing Indonesia’s 40.57. The sector’s all‑time peak of 41.21 occurred in 1990, after which a sharp decline to the trough of 21.94 in 2001 reflected the post‑socialist transition and reduced mining output. Since the early 2000s, gradual reforms, expanding mineral extraction and modest diversification have lifted the indicator steadily, reaching a level 13.84 points higher than the 1981 baseline. The 45‑year coverage shows a net gain of 13.84 points, underscoring the resilience of Mongolia’s industrial base despite volatility. Continued investment in processing infrastructure and higher‑value manufacturing could sustain the upward trajectory, while any slowdown in commodity prices would likely temper future growth.
